Humans have allways lived in within reach of nature and forests, some more than others depending on where you live in the world. But how can we still not be immune to something like pollen by now? Something that we have been affected by every summer ever? Why doesnt our immunesystem adapt to it? Can animals have pollenallergy to?
In: Biology
I don’t have allergies so I guess technically I am someone who is immune to pollen. If I understand it correctly, allergies are an over response by your immune system not a deficient one. So your ancestors probably evolved in an area with low pollen and now when you experience large amounts, your immune system is like, whoa I am not used to that better get it out of here with lots and lots of mucus.
